Information

Consumption
Substrate Quality
Clean and dry, homogeneous, free from oils and grease, dust and loose or friable
particles.
Substrate Preparation
Pre-dampen the substrate with clean water, this ensures that the foam cures
optimally and also prevents secondary foam expansion later on.

Tools
Shake the can thoroughly before use (~ 20 times). Remove the small black lid from
the Sika Boom -G aerosol can. Screw the Sika Boom -G can on to the Sika
Boom -G Dispenser. Gently press the trigger of the Sika Boom-G Dispenser to
apply the foam. Where small gaps have to be filled use the extension tube supplied
(the foam flow rate is lower with the extension tube). Take care to allow each layer
to cure sufficiently by spraying water or allowing sufficient waiting time between the
layers. Do not fill up hollow sections completely as the foam expands by 1.5 to 2
times its volume during curing! All fixings and components etc must be temporarily
supported until the foam has hardened.
Do not take the Sika Boom-G can off of the Sika Boom-G Dispenser unless
absolutely necessary. Taking the can off of the Sika Boom-G Dispenser, without
thorough cleaning with Sika Boom Cleaner, can lead to premature curing and nonfunctioning of the Sika Boom-G Dispenser. The safest way is to keep the Sika
Boom -G can mounted onto the Sika Boom -G Dispenser until empty.
Cleaning of Tools
Remove fresh spots of foam immediately using a cleaner such as Sika Boom

Notes on Application /
Limitations
The aerosol can temperature has to be +5C min. and +25C max. For optimum
flow and expansion the aerosol can temperature should be +18 to +25C.
Protect the can from direct sun and temperatures above +50C (danger of
explosion).
For the correct curing of the foam sufficient moisture is necessary.
Do not use on PE, PP, Teflon, Silicone, Oil, Grease and other separating agents.
Foam is not resistant to UV light.
